Yes - It Can Happen Lyrics






You can fool yourself
You can cheat until you're blind
You can cut your heart
It can happen

You can mend the wires
You can feed the soul apart
You reach
It can happen to you
It can happen to me
It can happen to everyone eventually

It's a constant fight
A constant fight
You're pushing the needle to the red
Black and white
Who knows who's right
No substitute you're born you're dead
Fly by night
Created out of fantasy
Our destinations call

Look up - Look down
Look out - Look around
Look up - Look down
There's a crazy world outside
We're not about to lose our pride

It can happen to you
It can happen to me
It can happen to everyone eventually

As you happen to say
It can happen today
As it happens
It happens in every way

This world I like
We architects of life
A song a sigh
Developing words that linger
Through fields of green through open eyes
This for us to see

Look up - Look down
Look out - Look around
So look up - Look down
There's a crazy world outside
We're not about to lose our pride

It can happen to you
It can happen to me
It can happen to everyone eventually

As you happen to say
It can happen today
As it happens
It happens in every way

As you happen to see
It will happen to be
Nothing happens to nowhere and nowhere

[Solo]

Look up - Look down
There's a crazy world outside
We're not about to lose our pride

It can happen to you
It can happen to me
It can happen to everyone eventually

As you happen to see
It will happen to be
Nothing happens to nowhere and nowhere

You can fool yourself
You can cheat until you're blind
You can cut your heart

You can fool yourself
You can cheat until you're blind
It can happen to you
It can happen to me

You can cut your heart

It can happen to everyone eventually
As you happen to say
It can happen today
As it happens
It happens in every way

You can mend the wires
You can feed the soul apart
You can touch your life
You can bring your soul alive
It can happen to you
It can happen to me
It can happen to everyone eventually

As you happen to say
It can happen today
As it happens
It happens in every way

  13. L.... D....

  34. R.... A....

    Wonderful YES song.

  35. r.... b....

    1985 I remember when I was a kid.

  36. s.... t....

    0:19 los pelos de punta

  37. D.... C....

    I saw this tour in 1984 at the Oakland coliseum they played every song on the album great great show !!!!

  38. H.... H....

    That voice! Great album.

  39. m.... ....

    Genius bass, genius.

  40. A.... U....

    Con buenas rolas te consolidas saludos grupazo...

  41. T.... S....

    I am a huge Rush fan and we are always having discussion about the comparison with Yes... I admit that this album is as good as any album Rush ever put out...

  42. N.... ....

    Was not the biggest fan of this period of the outfit's catalogue (it's not bad...it just holds my interest less). However that descending, arpeggiated bass line in the "It can happen" stanzas... mannnnn.

  43. D.... G....

    Lol this a good wake up song for fools that go through life thinking that they can tell everybody how it is

  44. A.... C....

    I’m making this comment just in case some movie or show makes this popular.

  45. f.... v....

    After close to the edge i loved yes and the music

  46. a.... p....

    Eargasmic Trevor Horn production!

  47. J.... E....

    Yes Rocks !! \m/

  48. S.... T....

    Yes I know everything halaua prase the Lord

  49. S.... T....

    I can do it far back

  50. S.... T....

    I like bands broads and silver but I'm gonna be 9395untill I hear different guess that all I got all I got you the beer goes in me and then I'm a real good eskamo kisser

  51. S.... T....

    I sure do worry and who pushes this issue the most and yesno why Noyes why bread came along with yes and why. Think that I'll never know

  52. S.... T....

    Anything g can happen but do think the name of this band is positive or negative

  53. C.... L....

    💃🏃💃🏃💃🏃💃🏃💃🏃

  54. e.... s....

    That Bass Work

  55. D.... S....

    Could be the strangest application of a lyric to a situation. Early '80's, and the gopher in the first Innovation Centre in Ireland, we were invited to the University of Galway to give a talk on Entrepreneurship (I was nominated). Went up with record deck & speakers, and started with "It can happen". Stunned reaction - even then prog was passe - then built the lyrics into the talk. Still makes sense to me. Then a couple of years later it really did "happen to me" and all I can say is I needed these and many other lyrics to see me through. See, some people completely underestimate the power of lyrics, emotion, and flat out passion. Thank you, Yes, and others, for those years.

  56. s.... t....

    Son la puta ostia perdona que lo diga pero es verdad

  57. W.... L....

    If they're talking about love, I'm 47 and still looking for love, I don't think it's going to happen but IT CAN HAPPEN TO ME, IT CAN

  58. c.... ....

    Yes makes it happen.

  59. L.... B....

    One of The Best ! Yes, since my first song I heard of "Them", I was a Fan ! Roundabout was the "Yes" hook !

  60. f.... v....

  63. e.... r....

    That´s music, man!

  64. M.... B....

    It's a constant fight, you're pushing the needle to the red.

  65. R.... J....

    THIS IS MUSIC!!!

  66. M.... B....

    Not a bad track on this album. Soundtrack of my life from '84 to '85.

  67. R.... W....

    Spatially oriented and systematically thorough Musicians that work with Better Sense of Life! Artistically so expressive in refining Modern Music as YES..

  68. D.... H....

    Powerful!

  69. W.... D....

    Down down oh my Mitchell Brooke Shields will protect us danny

  70. M.... T....

    underrated LP......

    Eat your heart out Heroes and Villians.

  78. A.... L....

    FORMIDÁVEL!!🇧🇷

  79. T.... R....

    I have to remember to get a new copy of this CD....

  80. M.... ....

    No doubt this is my favorite Yes album.

  81. P.... G....

    Love this song; also love all the NWO internet marketing ads in these videos. BTW, it's illegal to show different ads to different people, disregarding relevance to the content of the video. Why should I be seeing internet marketing ads, just listening to a YES song? Search engines explode over this kind of content sabotage! I definitely believe Bain Financial has monopolized YouTube!

  82. M.... B....

    Great album! It was the soundtrack to my summer in '84.

  83. B.... O....

    Rabin’s guitar, Squire’s passages and Anderson’s voice and this part with spoken dialogue... mind blowing.

  84. a.... s....

    I remember those days..man...

  85. k.... S....

    You can cheat until you're blind

  86. A.... D....

    Johan Anderson voie magique sacré groupe

  87. J.... P....

    how some lounge singer like joan jett get's into the RRHOF before YES is worse than a asteroid hitting earth.

  88. J.... F....

    Saw Yes "in the round" Oakland Coliseum Arena in 90-91...
    All 8 members at the time-
    Trevor Rabin
    Steve Howe
    Bill Bruford
    Alan White
    Rick Wakeman
    Chris Squire
